Yahoo routinely checks the content of the websites they host. I have a friend who posted some nude pictures of herself on a public page on her site and it was removed a couple of months after she'd done so. So, from experience, if they didn't like what he had up there, they may very well have removed it all on their own. Of course, knowing him, he'll never admit that he did anything wrong, so even the truth (if that's what happened) won't ever be accepted.
I thought about, but decided not to send him an e-mail asking him if Yahoo thinks Brin-L.com "deserved to die". For all I know he'd take it as some sort of twisted proof that I had something to do with this. God, it was tempting tho.
Rich, did he crosspost to Culture? Just curious. They reacted so poorly over there the last time he did that.

I wondered if he posted that message verbatim to the bizarro Brin-L list, or if he sugar-coated it when he sent it to his own personal power-trip group.
